Don't know what to tell ya. RT2 is just so good for me. I agree Ponty isn't a solo monster - but the whole band and songs are gravy. All kinds of badassery. Montanta Frank solo - Big Swifty - everything about it is just hot. You either dig it or well... I'm at a loss. To each their own gravy. hah

I gotta say - RT#2 gives Roxy a real run for it's money - I might like RT#2 even more than Roxy - but it depends on what day it is. I LOVE that band with Ponty. Each one has its own awesome flavor.

I feel the same way. Actually, upon first listen to RBP, I kept wondering, "Where's Frank? Where's Frank?" Not a lot of FZ solos on that release.By contrast, the RT2 release features some smoking FZ work, especially Big Swifty. For that reason alone, I prefer RT2. More Road Trips, please!

Me three. RT2 is off the charts great. The guitar work is a whole other "era" for FZ. For me personally, I love the jams/solos. And no complaints from me on JLP. I find it refreshing. I haven't heard much of his solo work, so I hardly notice "he does the same thing" on his solos.
